What Do YOU Want?

I had the opportunity to spend last Thursday and Friday at Catalyst (www.catalystspace.com). A two-day Church/Christian leadership event. And what an event it was! Highly creative, Highly introspective, Highly motivating, Highly informative, Highly inspirational, and now I am Highly confused. Not in a bad sense, but in a "what do I do with all of this" sense. I took pages and pages of notes which will take time to digest and meditate upon.

Now I am the type of person that can easily be swayed into a "Yes! What he said! Let's go for it—let's do it!" reaction. My Sr. Pastor, Crawford Lorrits, recently tweeted that "the difference between reaction and response is listening".

So, instead of packing it all up and moving to Africa to feed the orphans (though who knows what the future holds), I need to take the time to actively and patiently listen—spend time in God's Word—and figure out what He wants me to do with all of this. Clearly, there are some things certain: My responsibilities as a husband and father. But after that, who knows? Needless to say, I am challenged.

Anyway, more to come blogwise I am sure...
